Background: Snakes are one of the most important wildlife resources and are widely distributed. Bungarus multicinctus is a highly venomous snake and is distributed in central and southern China. In recent years, venomous snake bites have gradually increased. Genomic resources are significant for understanding the evolution of a specie and the molecular mechanisms of toxin production.
Find: Here we present a highly- continuous genome assembly of B. multicinctus. The genome size of B. multicinctus is 1.51Gb. The maximal length of scaffold is 39.68M and the N50 length is 6.55M. The B. multicinctus has a GC content of 37.8%.
